Hi Richard, I just checked the books I have recently downloaded, and all of them show the author. Also, I just tried an author search for the last name of an author who wrote one of the books I downloaded since installing version four. And what do you know? The book showed up? So I will report this to Winston. But unfortunately I cannot corroborate your finding with your new books not having the author. I assume they came from book share, right? Mary
